It's getting so even the local contests are tough, especially when Tom Cardona and James Dunlevy are the judges. The two of them, particularly Papa Tom, take their judging duties seriously. A week ago Saturday night Potpourri and the two men made up the panel which judged the annual Valentine Girl contest of Beta Sigma Phi sorority. Papa Tom and Jimmy D. wanted to know what the five pretty femmes thought about life, motherhood, juvenile delinquency and the state of the nation. Of course, they didn't entirely forget such trifles as sweet smiles, bright eyes and other feminine charm, and when it came to the business of saying "this one" all three of us had a hard time choosing. One candidate, Mrs. Treavell Turpin, didn't even know until she arrived at the dance that she was her chapter's candidate for Valentine Girl. "Heavens," she said wistfully. "I could have had a new dress out of this!" At supper time Potpourri sat with the Cardonas and the O. A. Edens and joined the table in time to hear Mr. C. invite his younger daughter for a turn around the dance floor. Daughter Jean rolled her eyes with laughter and then remarked, "Papa, I like to dance with you except you're so hard to reach!" There were many, lovely gowns at the Beta Sigma Phi dance, but no chemise or sack dresses at least that came into our view. Mrs. Maynard Paup, who with Mrs. William Prentiss was at the ticket table, wore a bouffant white gown with touches of red and a big velvet rose, and Mrs. Prentiss also wore red, a popular valentine color. Mrs. Bob Norris, pretty young mother who was the choice of the judges for Valentine Girl, wore a simple dress of blue sheer print which she and her mother made for the event. However, chemise dresses were to be found at the Junior Service league style show last week, and even caused a minor commotion. At least two women arrived at the club house wearing pardon us sacks, and others were modeled in the show. The dress worn by blonde and beautiful Susan Holmes (Mrs. David) was a bright red cotton knit chemise set off with a white felt cloche over her brief hair style, and she carried her tiny white poodle dog, Toute de Suite. Toute de Suite was also in the show. When Susan made her first appearance, she wore an utterly gorgeous cham pagne colored dress with a long peplum edged with puffs of the same material, and carried the tiny dog under her arm. Toute de Suite enjoyed being in the fashion spotlight, and Friday night tried to join the other models on the stage after he and his mistress had taken their turn. The chemise which Susan wore for the show was raw silk in the fashionable orange ice color. The creation which caused the most comment was worn by Mrs. Billy Black stone and was a navy blue dress with a double bloused back which hung almost to the hem. When Mrs. B. came into the room Thursday, a veritable babble arose. She walked up on the ramp, turned her back to the guests and just stood still for several seconds until everyone had a good chance to take in the unusual detail of the dress. Mrs. John C. Anicker Jr. attended the luncheon and show Thursday wearing a dress, a deep grey and white pumps. Looked positively stunning, too. But Mrs. A. is either extremely honest or else has a high sense of humor or maybe both. When Potpourri called to ask about the dress she confessed that she had made over an old frock by removing the belt and re-arranging it here and there. What's more, she recommends for maternity wear. Perhaps the guests weren't the wedding of Nancy Arant and Arnold Dillon Friday night wasn't exactly as planned. To begin with, the bride had poison oak. Enticed by the spring weather last Sunday, she took a stroll out doors and a couple of days later the tell tale rash began to pop out. Remembering that last spring she had been kept indoors for three days with her eyes swelled shut, Nancy rushed off to the doctor for emergency treatment. But the saddest part of the the middle of the week it began to storm and by Friday night the landscape was soggy and muddy. Hastening to the church the bridegroom met with an accident and fell in the mud, ruining his good dark suit. So he stood at the altar wearing slacks and a jacket. And the best man had to moment. "It was a comedy of errors," Saturday morning. "But no one Everyone was in high spirits to add to the enjoyment.
